pcall function runs another LUA function in protected mode, this means
that any error will be caught by this function and will not stop the LUA
execution. The script kill mechanism uses error to stop the running script.
Scripts that uses pcall can catch the error raise by the script kill mechanism,
this will cause a script like this to be unkillable:
local f = function()
while 1 do
redis.call('ping')
end
end
while 1 do
pcall(f)
end
The fix is, when we want to kill the script, we set the hook function to be invoked
after each line. This will promise that the execution will get another
error before it is able to enter the pcall function again.

Some operating systems (e.g., NetBSD and OpenBSD) have switched to
using a 64-bit integer for time_t on all platforms. This results in currently
harmless compiler warnings due to potential truncation.
These changes fix these minor portability concerns.
* Fix format string for systems with 64 bit time
* use llabs to avoid truncation with 64 bit time

In the long term we may want to move away from anet completely and have
everything implemented natively in connection.c, instead of having an
extra layer.
For now, just get rid of unused code.

In certain scenario start_server may think it failed to start a redis server
although it started successfully. in these cases, it'll not terminate it, and
it'll remain running when the test is over.
In start_server if config doesn't have bind (the minimal.conf in introspection.tcl),
it will try to bind ipv4 and ipv6. One may success while other fails. It will
output "Could not create server TCP listening socket".
wait_server_started uses this message to check whether instance started
successfully. So it will consider that it failed even though redis started successfully.
Additionally, in some cases it wasn't clear to users why the server exited,
since the warning message printed to the log, could in some cases be harmless,
and in some cases fatal.
This PR adds makes a clear distinction between a warning log message and
a fatal one, and changes the test suite to look for the fatal message.

lookupKeyReadOrReply and lookupKeyWriteOrReply might decide to reply to the user
with the given robj reply. This reply might be an error reply and if so addReply
function is used instead of addReplyErrorObject which will cause the error reply not
to be counted on stats. The fix checks the first char in the reply and if its '-' (error)
it uses addReplyErrorObject.

REDISMODULE_CTX_FLAGS_EVICT and REDISMODULE_CTX_FLAGS_MAXMEMORY
shouldn't be set when the module is run inside a replica that doesn't do eviction.
one may argue that the database is under eviction (the master does eviction and sends DELs to the replica).
but on the other hand, we don't really know the master's configuration.
all that matters is if the current instance does evictions or not.

listenToPort attempts to gracefully handle and ignore certain errors but does not store errno prior to logging, which in turn calls several libc functions that may overwrite errno.
This has been discovered due to libmusl strftime() always returning with errno set to EINVAL, which resulted with docker-library/redis#273.

1. moduleReplicateMultiIfNeeded should use server.in_eval like
moduleHandlePropagationAfterCommandCallback
2. server.in_eval could have been set to 1 and not reset back
to 0 (a lot of missed early-exits after in_eval is already 1)
Note: The new assertions in processCommand cover (2) and I added
two module tests to cover (1)
Implications:
If an EVAL that failed (and thus left server.in_eval=1) runs before a module
command that replicates, the replication stream will contain MULTI (because
moduleReplicateMultiIfNeeded used to check server.lua_caller which is NULL
at this point) but not EXEC (because server.in_eval==1)
This only affects modules as module.c the only user of server.in_eval.
Affects versions 6.2.0, 6.2.1

On a replica we do accept connections, even though commands accessing
the database will operate in read-only mode. But the server is still
already operational and processing commands.
Not sending the readiness notification means that on a HA setup where
the nodes all start as replicas (with replicaof in the config) with
a replica that cannot connect to the master server and which might not
come back in a predictable amount of time or at all, the service
supervisor will end up timing out the service and terminating it, with
no option to promote it to be the main instance. This seems counter to
what the readiness notification is supposed to be signaling.
Instead send the readiness notification when we start accepting
commands, and then send the various server status changes as that.
